Dear Fellow Shareholders:
I am pleased to provide you with the annual report for Heritage
Income-Growth Trust (the "Fund") for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999.
For this period, your Fund had a total return of +6.14%, +5.32% and +5.32% on
Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively.*
During your Fund's most recent fiscal year, the trend we have been
reporting to you of large capitalization stocks outperforming smaller and mid
cap stocks continued. Further, the growth versus value performance dichotomy,
after a brief shift earlier this year, has returned. In recent months,
technology stocks, which generally have the highest price-to-earnings ratios in
the market, were one of the only areas in the market where investors have made
money. Against this backdrop, your Fund had a difficult time keeping up with
market averages. During your Fund's fiscal year, the market cap weighted
Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index returned almost 28% while the
unweighted Value Line Index gained only about 9%.
As we have discussed in previous letters, your Fund is designed to provide
investors with an opportunity to participate in the long term positive returns
of the stock market while offering a smoother ride than they may experience
from the market averages or from other more aggressive stock mutual funds. Your
Fund continues to offer much less volatility than the market indexes and, over
the last five and ten year periods ended September 30, 1999, has delivered
annualized total returns of 13.77% and 10.67%, respectively** on the Fund's
Class A shares.
In the portfolio managers' letter that follows, Lou Kirschbaum and David
Blount discuss the factors that influenced your Fund's performance over the
last year. I hope you find their comments helpful in understanding the
difficult circumstances that have faced conservative equity investors in the
recent reporting period.
Thank you for your continuing investment in Heritage Income-Growth Trust.
If there are ever ways in which you believe we could serve you better, please
call us at 800/709-3863. On behalf of all of us at Heritage, best wishes for a
happy and healthy holiday season.
Sincerely,
/s/ STEPHEN G. HILL

November 5, 1999
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
In our letter to you six months ago we noted a disconnect of historic
proportion between the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Price Index (S&P 500)
and the vast body of publicly traded stocks. This dichotomy has continued since
we made those comments. Indeed, the chasm that separates the "haves" and
"have-nots" among individual stocks and market sectors has widened in the past
half year, as an increasingly narrow list of stocks has led the Index higher
while leaving most other stocks laboring in an extended bearish trend. As a
result, we are experiencing a valuation disparity the likes of which hasn't
been seen in nearly three decades.
The market leadership turned away from the "growth" style and toward a more
diverse group of value-oriented companies last spring, but this shift proved to
be short-lived as growth stocks reasserted themselves in the summer and fall.
In the most recent months, a few of the former growth leaders - including
Coca-Cola, Gillette, and Pfizer - have stalled, leaving the market nearly
entirely in the hands of technology stocks. Indeed, in the September quarter
the technology group was the only sector of the S&P 500 that produced positive
returns.
The S&P 500, against which most mutual funds are benchmarked, gained nearly 28%
in the past 12 months. The Value Line Index, which is broader than the S&P 500
(1600 stocks vs. 500) and isn't weighted by company size (as opposed to the S&P
500, which is weighted by market capitalization), gained only 9% in the past
year. Our Fund's performance was behind that of the Value Line Index.
The most important contributors on the positive side were, as you might expect,
nearly all securities that would fall into the "growth" category: Intimate
Brands, Omnicom, American Express, General Electric, Sysco, Alltel, and Time
Warner (held in the form of Houston Industries 7% preferred shares which are
exchangeable for Time Warner stock). Though in different industries, all of
these companies have produced consistently strong earnings growth, and the
market rewarded this.
Telecommunications stocks performed exceptionally well in the past year,
benefiting in part from a halo effect generated by the strength in most
technology-related issues. Alltel, GTE, and Williams Companies were standout
performers in this sector.
On the other side of the ledger, the list is longer. Three groups that were
down over the past 12 months are worth noting. Drug stocks, which had been
among the market's leaders for several years, have given ground in the past six
months despite continuing excellent earnings results. The concern that produced
this disparity stems from the increased volume of discussion in Washington
regarding the expansion of Medicare benefits to include prescription
pharmaceuticals. The "worst case" fear relates to the imposition of some sort
of price controls that would crimp drug company profit growth. As a result, the
drug group is trading at its most attractive valuation (relative to earning
power) since the early part of this decade, and we are maintaining the Fund's
exposure in this sector.
Another group worthy of discussion is the real estate investment trusts
(REITs), which a year ago comprised the largest single industry exposure in the
Fund's portfolio. Like the drugs, the stocks are down in spite of continuing
excellent operating results. Indeed, REIT cash flows are 11% to 12% higher
currently than a year ago. The stocks, however, have been under pressure
because the rate of growth has been decelerating. In a sort of circular logic,
the stocks have become so cheap (I.E., the cost of equity capital is so high)
that the spread between prospective investment returns and capital costs has
narrowed, reducing the opportunity for profitable real estate development
and/or acquisition. Unlike our treatment of the drug sector, we have reduced
the Fund's exposure in the REIT area-narrowing our focus to a small number of
the best positioned companies that still enjoy solid growth prospects even in a
more difficult financing environment.
<PAGE>
In addition, financial stocks and utilities generally were unrewarding
investments in the past 12 months, largely due to the sharp backup in interest
rates that took place during this period. Still, the stocks produced hearty
dividend yields, and most of our holdings in these sectors boosted their
payouts in the past 12 months, reflecting healthy financial positions and
management confidence in future growth prospects.
In formulating strategy, we continue to emphasize rising dividend streams and
discounted valuations in our investment selection process. We expect this
approach will produce worthwhile investment returns whenever the market places
more importance on long-term value creation.
Sincerely,
/s/ LOU KIRSCHBAUM /s/ DAVID BLOUNT

HERITAGE INCOME-GROWTH TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Heritage Income-Growth Trust (the
"Fund") is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's
investment objective is long-term total return by seeking, with
approximately equal emphasis, current income and capital appreciation.
The Fund currently issues Class A, Class B and Class C Shares. Class A
Shares are sold subject to a maximum sales charge of 4.75% of the
amount invested payable at the time of purchase. Class B Shares, which
were offered to shareholders beginning January 2, 1998, are sold
subject to a 5% maximum contingent deferred sales load (based on the
lower of purchase price or redemption price), declining over a six year
period. Class C Shares, which were offered to shareholders beginning
April 3, 1995, are sold subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
of 1% of the lower of net asset value or purchase price payable upon
any redemption made in less than one year of purchase. The preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary
of significant accounting policies:
SECURITY VALUATION: The Fund values investment securities at market
value based on the last quoted sales price as reported by the principal
securities exchange on which the security is traded. If no sale is
reported, market value is based on the last bid and in the absence of a
market quote, securities are valued using such methods as the Board of
Trustees believe would reflect fair market value. Short-term
investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: The Fund enters into repurchase agreements
whereby the Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the
underlying securities, the market value of which at the time of
purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the
resale price.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: The Fund's policy is to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which
are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income and excise
taxes.
DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME AND GAINS: Distributions of net investment
income are made quarterly. Net realized gains from investment
transactions during any particular year in excess of available capital
loss carryforwards, which, if not distributed, would be taxable to the
Fund, will be distributed to shareholders in the following fiscal year.
The Fund uses the identified cost method for determining realized gain
or loss on investments for both financial and federal income tax
reporting purposes.
EXPENSES: The Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly
attributable to it, such as management fee, custodian/fund accounting
fees, distribution fee, etc., while other expenses such as insurance
expense, is allocated proportionately among the other Heritage Mutual
funds. Expenses of the Fund are allocated to each class of shares based
upon their relative percentage of current net assets. All expenses that
are directly attributable to a specific class of shares, such as
distribution fees, are charged directly to that class.
STATE QUALIFICATION EXPENSES: State qualification fees are amortized
based either on the time period covered by the qualification or as
related shares are sold, whichever is appropriate for each state.
OPTIONS: When the Fund writes a covered call option, the Fund receives
a premium on the sale of an option, but gives up the opportunity to
profit from any increase in stock value above the exercise price of the
option. If an option that the Fund has written either expires on its
stipulated expiration date, or the Fund enters into a closing purchase
transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing
purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was
sold) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying
security, and the liability related to such option is extinguished. If
a call option that the Fund has written is exercised, the Fund realizes
a capital gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and
the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally
received. The amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is
included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset
and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is
subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of
the option written. The current market value of a written option is the
last offering price on the principal exchange on which such option is
traded.
CAPITAL ACCOUNTS: The Fund reports the undistributed net investment
income and accumulated net realized gain (loss) accounts on a basis
approximating amounts available for future tax distributions (or to
offset future taxable realized gains when a capital loss carryforward
is available). Accordingly, the Fund may periodically make
reclassifications among certain capital accounts without impacting the
net asset value of the Fund.
OTHER: For purposes of these financial statements, investment security
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividend income
and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. All original issue
discounts are accreted for both tax and financial reporting purposes.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Heritage Income-Growth Trust
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Heritage Income-Growth Trust (the
"Fund") at September 30, 1999, the results of its operations for the year then
ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial
statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of
securities at September 30, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
